5 Best Wi-Fi Hacking Tools And Software!

 

  1. Kismet

Kismet is an 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and intrusion detection system. Kismet will work with any wireless card which supports raw monitoring (rfmon) mode, and (with appropriate hardware) can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g, and 802.11n traffic. Kismet also supports plugins which allow sniffing other media such as DECT. Kismet identifies networks by passively collecting packets and detecting standard named networks, detecting (and given time, decloaking) hidden networks, and infering the presence of nonbeaconing networks via data traffic.

-Features :

1. 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11a, 802.11n sniffing
2. Standard PCAP file logging (Wireshark, Tcpdump, etc)
3. Client/Server modular architecture
4. Multi-card and channel hopping support
5. Runtime WEP decoding
6. Tun/Tap virtual network interface drivers for realtime export of packets
7. Hidden SSID decloaking
8. Distributed remote sniffing with Kismet drones
9. XML logging for integration with other tools
10. Linux, OSX, Windows, and BSD support (devices and drivers permitting)

2. NetStumbler

NetStumbler is a tool for Windows that facilitates detection of Wireless LANs using the 802.11b, 802.11a and 802.11g WLAN standards. It runs on Microsoft Windows operating systems from Windows 2000 to Windows XP. A trimmed-down version called MiniStumbler is available for the handheld Windows CE operating system.

-Used for :

1. Wardriving
2. Verifying network configurations
3. Finding locations with poor coverage in a WLAN
4. Detecting causes of wireless interference
5. Detecting unauthorized ("rogue") access points
6. Aiming directional antennas for long-haul WLAN links

3. WireShark

Wireshark is the world's foremost network protocol analyser. It lets you see what's happening on your network at a microscopic level. It is the de facto standard across many industries and educational institutions.

-Features :

1. Deep inspection of hundreds of protocols, with more being added all the time
2. Live capture and offline analysis
3. Standard three-pane packet browser
4. Multi-platform: Runs on Windows, Linux, OS X, Solaris, FreeBSD, NetBSD, and many others
5. Captured network data can be browsed via a GUI, or via the TTY-mode TShark utility

4. AirSnort

AirSnort is a Linux and Microsoft Windows utility (using GTK+) for decrypting WEP encryption on an 802.11b network. Distributed under the GNU General Public License,[1] AirSnort is free software. However, it is no longer maintained or supported.

5. CoWPAtty

CoWPAtty automates the dictionary attack for WPA-PSK. It runs on Linux. The program is started using a command-line interface, specifying a word-list that contains the passphrase, a dump file that contains the four-way EAPOL handshake, and the SSID of the network.

How to find and remove duplicate files from PC uplicate files can cause all kinds of problems on your computer, taking up precious storage room, confusing your photo or media manager apps, and generally getting in the way of searches and other operations when you'd rather they didn't. You don't have to accept duplicate files as an inevitability of running a PC, though: Here's how to get rid of them. Duplicate files can crop up for all kinds of reasons: Maybe you downloaded a file, forgot it was there, and then downloaded it again; maybe you copied a folder of images and then never got around to getting rid of the originals. Whatever the reason, they clog up your disk space and shouldn't be left to gather dust. For the purposes of this guide we're going to use DupeGuru-it's Lifehacker's pick as the best duplicate file finder for Windows, and it's available for Mac and Linux as well. If you're not taken with DupeGuru, then some of the best al...

iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus review: The best iPhones Apple has made

iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus review: The best iPhones Apple has made 's tough meeting expectations years after year. And yet, Apple keeps doing it, although no longer as effortlessly as it would do earlier in this decade. The company launched the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus on October 7 in the Indian market, a month after the global announcement of the two phones. These are the phones that look like incremental update to the iPhone 6S and the iPhone 6S Plus. But looks can be deceiving. And they surely are in this case. Of late, the iPhone is facing tough challenge from others in the market. The Galaxy S7 arguably has a better design. The Samsung phone also has better screen and, in most cases, better camera. Google's Nexus phones have better software. The HTC offers better sound in its high-end phones. The Sony phones are waterproof. All of this puts the iPhone at a back-foot. The good thing is that Apple knows these challenges and is meeting them head-on with t...
